Hoag Turns a Boat
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Action picked up on the river with a sizable pot brewing between Dylan Ayers in the hijack, Robert Hoag on the button, and the player in the small blind.
With about 45,000 in the middle and the board reading 7♠9♦9♥2♥4♣, the small blind led out with a bet of 20,000 and Ayers called. Hoag then moved all in for 50,100 to put himself at risk. The small blind called and Ayers flashed pocket eights before tossing them into the muck.
Hoag turned over 2♣2♠ for a full house, deuces full of nines, besting the A♦9♣ of the small blind.
